The National Human Rights Commission (NHRC) is an independent body in India that works to protect and promote human rights. It investigates complaints of human rights violations, advises the government on issues related to human rights, and takes measures to ensure justice and accountability. The NHRC aims to uphold the dignity, freedom, and equality of all individuals, especially vulnerable groups, by monitoring government actions and promoting awareness. It functions as a watchdog to ensure that citizens' fundamental rights are respected and can intervene when rights are infringed upon.
